Lovely bottle that has shed its baby weight and come together nicely. Light and elegant.

Not very concentrated or profound. Lacking real typicity.

Ripe, dark berry fruit and richly textured on the palate. Liquid candy. Missing that gamey/funk component currently though.

Super glossy. Pretty wine, but a little to polished for my taste.
